To store and retrieve secrets from the operating systems on which Firefox runs a generic key-store adapter is needed, hiding details of each operating system.
Priority: -- → P1
Whiteboard: [psm-assigned]
This implements the DAR API in `nsIOSKeyStore.idl` and `OSKeyStore.cpp` with two back-ends.
Libsecret is used on Linux if available.
The NSS key store is used as fallback if no OS specific key store is implemented.

Since the solution for libsecret doesn't seem acceptable this is using the NSS fallback on Linux for now.
